I wonder if anyone will actually dispute it???

Windsor West NDP MP Brian Masse wants Colbert to visit Windsor before rushing to judgment.

"I would just invite Stephen Colbert to come to Windsor, get out of his basement, and to come over here and talk with people, see people," Masse said. "Obviously; he's off his medications and hopefully Obamacare will come from him and rescue him from his situation

There is the off-chance Colbert could be referencing Windsor, N.S., since the footnote does not mention Ontario. There is also Grand Falls-Windsor, N.L.

Windsor Mayor Eddie Francis responded to the insult by saying, "There are many Windsors in Canada. So it could be Windsor, Nova Scotia, Windsor, Quebec, Windsor, Newfoundland. But with regards to Colbert, it's just Colbert being Colbert. Like I've said before, I don't even think he's been through the city."

Francis went on to say that Colbert was just a comedian trying to sell books and get a few laughs.

The link has a poll asking if Colbert's description is correct or not.

1,985 votes so far and 76.42% agree with him.

I was thinking that was a little harsh. Totally accurate, but harsh.

Then I realized I was thinking of Hamilton.

I have not yet been to Windsor, although I am making plans for a drive up and into Ontario in a month or two looking for hockey gear. Destination London.

I like the idea of calling Canadians "ice holes." "Nice holes" might work too, although it could be misinterpreted.
